The 60 k Walk! They Did It!















They did it! Kim and Laura walked 60 k in the Weekend To End Breast Cancer! After raising 0ver $2000 each ( THANK YOU EVERYONE!) Kim and Laura walked from the Agricom -Legislature grounds-109th St Bridge- Cross Cancer Institute-Lendrum-South Gate- Whitemud Freeway- West Edmonton Mall area -YMCA in 8 hours! They tented overnight and were up and at it by 5:30 the next morning! The walk continued to Stony Plain Road-Westmount- St. Edmunds-Queen E and O'Leary School-82 St-Agricom! There were only a few blisters and sore muscles. They had lots of support on the way that kept them going.
Kim had over eight family members to dedicate the walk to. Laura has many students , family members and a painting buddy( Dianne) to walk for. It is truly amazing what a person can do if they try.
